You may already know Matt Robertson’s name through his work as musical director for Björk, Cinematic Orchestra and Anohni Hegarty amongst his impressive list of credits as a composer and producer. We’re excited to share with you Matt’s new album In Echelon, which is out today.

Inspired by the idea of surveillance and how we’re always monitored but seem either oblivious or apathetic to it, In Echelon is a stunning showcase of Matt’s combination of electronic music production with classical composition and cinematic soundscapes, featuring sounds generated from his vast collection of vintage, modern and DIY synths.

“…a magnificent five-and-a-half minutes of wild, electronic sound. It morphs in (mostly) subtle ways, opening with ambient-ish tones before gradually snowballing into a leviathan web of layers and textures and details. What begins quite free and open slowly descends into claustrophobic depths.”

Hairy Hands has been busy cooking some aural delights up in his studio, and we have some brand new music for your earholes… “YNA” is the second single taken from Hairy Hands’ long-awaited debut album “Magic“, premiered Tuesday evening on Huw Stephen’s Radio 1 show and on SPINhere.

“Wonky electro-funk” – Clash“Was not expecting to fall for this track so quickly. Now I can’t not see myself listening to it” – Indie Shuffle“…the track bounces like a soul-infused collaboration between Flying Lotus and Toro Y Moi might” – SPIN
